I’ve been working in media since before I even knew what that meant—actually, since before I was even working. My entire life, I’ve had a strong bent toward effective communication, and perhaps an even stronger sense of when it’s not effective. Creative messaging has played a vital role in my personal and professional life, and it’s something I strive to be better at every day.

Back when I started my first band, after countless hours spent practicing guitar and tweaking songs for the benefit of only me, I was amazed to feel the rush that came from interacting with a live audience. I was fascinated by the way a subtle change in the message could elicit a totally different response. I decided that if there was a living to be made telling stories this way, that’s what I’d aim for.

I’m still waiting for that multi-million dollar record deal to roll in, but in the meantime, I’ve found my niche here in multimedia design. I started out making simple web pages, moved on to advanced design and development, and ultimately discovered a true passion for bringing all these elements together in dynamic video production.

My favorite part is still the fact that there are virtually unlimited ways to present a message using motion and sound. When good storytelling comes together with seamless camera work, creative visual and graphic elements, and clear audio, it’s nothing short of magic.
